Our Pilot Training courses are tailored to the individual needs of our customers, and have been developed by incorporating best practice from Airbus Helicopters’ test pilots and operational experience from major fleet operators.

Ground school, flight training and simulator training are designed with an operational ‘real world’ approach and course content includes the latest technical and most up-to-date information on our helicopters.

We provide both Initial Transition courses and Recurrent courses. Our ‘in-aircraft’ pilot courses will develop the pilot’s skill-set to conduct flight operations safely and efficiently. These courses also develop the pilot’s decision-making abilities, both preflight and in-flight, through a challenging real-world scenario-based curriculum.

Airbus Helicopters Canada’s Transition Ground School covers the following subjects:

Aircraft Systems Integration

Emergency and Abnormal Procedures

Autopilot (where applicable)

Cockpit Displays and Controls

Performance planning and charts

Weight and Balance

Aircraft Flight Manual

Preflight/Post flight Checks

Night rating

Students are tested with a closed-book final examination, which covers aircraft systems, limitations and weight and balance sections. Students must achieve a score of 70% in order to receive a Certificate of Completion.
